Method and system for monitoring rotating blade health

A method and system for establishing sets of blade frequency values for each rotating blade of a rotor assembly at two or more different points in time and determining an indication of blade health from the change in the blade frequency values is provided. Blade frequency values are determined by receiving measurements of vibratory responses from blade monitoring equipment (20) and processing via a processing device (30) vibration data as a system of rotating blades to extract a frequency of each blade. Sets of blade frequency values are compared to determine a change in the blade frequency values for each rotating blade to provide the indication of blade health.

20220018707 · 2022-01-20 · ·

Methods for monitoring a circuit breaker include detecting at least one operation of a circuit breaker to obtain at least one vibration signal of the circuit breaker. Each vibration signal is represented as one-dimensional data of a vibration amplitude over time during the operation of the circuit breaker. The vibration signal is transformed to two-dimensional frequency-time data. The transformed frequency-time data is compared with benchmark data characterizing the at least one operation of the circuit breaker. A health condition is determined of the circuit breaker at least in part based on the comparison. Both the frequency component and the time component in the detected test vibration signals are considered in condition determination of the circuit breaker. The condition can be determined with high accuracy.
